About the Role

We are seeking an experienced Software Development Team Lead with expertise in real-time audio signal processing to lead the development of our Noise Cancellation (NC) software. The ideal candidate will combine strong technical expertise in DSP, driver integration, and system-level software engineering with proven leadership skills to guide a small development team through prototype and production phases.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead the design and development of real-time Noise Cancellation software for embedded and PC-based platforms.
• Oversee ML/DL algorithms, optimization, and implementation using Python, C/C++, and DSP frameworks.
• Guide the conversion of simulation scripts into executable software (py2exe, exe, MSI packaging).
• Define and manage requirements for driver development and driver integration with NC software.
• Collaborate with hardware and firmware teams to ensure low-latency, high-performance NC solutions.
• Establish testing methodologies for prototype evaluation, focusing on latency, stability, and audio quality.
• Provide technical mentorship to team members, conduct code reviews, and ensure adherence to best practices.
• Report project progress, risks, and deliverables to stakeholders.
